NGD! How did this happen?

[dmatthews]

How did this happen?!!???
There I was, minding my own business (yeah right), perusing guitars on the internet. No seriously!
When all of a sudden this pops up outta nowhere on Craigslist!
Bought it off a really nice lady in Chilliwack who has only had it for 3 weeks. Imagine my surprise!


Onyx...

Cool fretboard...

Flamey neck...


Please excuse me for a few minutes... I NEED to go plug this bad boy in!

SUPERDUPERSWEET!!!!

 

[gush]

Nice score!!!

 

[Mbroadster]

Sweet - Congrats !!!

 

[bodia]

Oh yeah! Congrats!

 

[dmatthews]

OMG...
What a sweet player!
Neck is super comfy. Guitar feels nice and light.
All the negative BS you read about 7.25 radius... yup... it's BS! This neck feels awesome, bends are no problem, and the action is low and sweet!
Range of tones is excellent. Easy to switch.
Back to playing!

Holy crap... two bangins?!!???

You’re not the prototypical NGD guy, so I thought it was appropriate.

 

[WEDGE]

That neck wood is sweet. Good score.

I'm afraid to ask what the prototypical NGD guy is like...

Man, when I saw it I was sunk. I was going to buy it anyway but geez...

Awesome!
As usual, it's impossible to be disappointed in a PRS guitar. This Silver Sky is absolutely no exception!
Can't believe how I lucked out. There was a guy going to check it out tomorrow, so I just HAD TO DO IT!
Right?

You bet!

I have envy.

 

[dmatthews]

You bet!

I have envy.

Les... I must say. I've wanted a high end Strat for over 10 years. I got distracted by PRS guitars for a very good reason of course.
This Silver Sky is the BEST of both worlds.
Jaw keeps bouncing off the table/floor/etc!

 

[László]

I’m looking forward to trying one, despite my usual aversion to Strats.

I’ll bet the SS is awesome!
